VertexRSI RSC-1200 1:2 Redundant System Controller
The VertexRSI RSC-1200 1:2 Redundant System Controller can directly power most LNA or LNB units and monitor the output voltages and currents to detect faults. The controller can also monitor external alarm input signals, such as from a SSPA or BUC, or monitor a combination of output currents and external alarm inputs. Upon detecting a unit failure, the controller can automatically drive a waveguide switch to activate the spare unit.
Redundant systems increase system availability by including spares for critical units (e.g., LNAs, LNBs, BUCs or SSPAs) in the signal path. In the case of a detected unit failure, the redundant system automatically switches to the spare. A 1:2 redundant system supports two active units and one spare unit.
